Except, NO COMPUTERS! when the owner is around (5 1/2 days a week usually) :cuss:... he's SO old fashioned about that, i think he'd rather we literally jerk off on slow days than surf the web, or Planet.

Other days, i hardly have time to catch my breath... its kind of a feast or famine thing.

Yep Im kind of in the same boat. Some weeks we cant get enough cars done, and every job gets sold. The next week, we may price a bunch if jobs and only sell a handful. When we have a good amount of jobs, my job is very stressful, but like Puffy said "it's all about the Benjis".

For a long time I've said that I get more done goofing off than most people do who claim to work so hard.

I work in violent flurries. I produce like an absolute wildman for 2-3 days when I need to, sometimes working early until late and repeat.....and then I need a day or two to just decompress.

I'm not sure what it is about my office and the lunch hour, but it seems like someone drops in every day around the time I'd have taken lunch. I haven't even stepped away to pee yet today.

7 hours, I'm probably not that productive for 2 hours on my shifts

Do you have a stadium buddy?

During the day I work for 10 or 15 minutes at a stretch, then there's a 5 or 10 minute intervening period where I am back at my desk. I also do quite a bit of accompanying work at home in the evenings. It's a lot of hours, if you think about your job in hours.

The 2nd part of this question should be, do you work for yourself or someone else? I have a feeling that is a big part of the equation.

Heh yep, gotta put up with the bad to get the good... drinking & surfing the Planet never made me any money.

I work approximately 47 hours a week in a 4 day work week, with Wednesdays and weekends off.

I have a question.

Is a spreadsheet something used in pron?

In my workplace, the quickest way to get a customer is to try & get something to eat.

It's more like a gladiator coliseum.

Or Poo.

My office is small, the crapper is near the front door. I had a run of 5 times in a row with no one in here, that someone stepped in while I was dropping broncofans. The phone is guaranteed to ring if no one enters.

Zero hours per day. I'm retired.
I do what I want, whenever I want all day long.

That's a weird question for me. SO much of what I do is reactionary, that it just depends on the day and if a lot of people came in that day and even then it's not really work as it is just asking people how they're doing and hearing about their cat's shenanigans or their last surgery. But on a day to day basis, I get everything done, I work a lot on days off as well though. So, I don't know, but I know that on average, I work about 50-60 hours a week, throw a funeral or wedding in there and it's more. And of those 50-60 hours, I would call it actually getting work done.
